In response to "would be fine as doubles. -- nm" by loosilu

Not for most of the population, I assure you.

I was never a workout monster like groiny, but I used to lift weights in college. At my strongest, I still wouldn't do tri's with more than 25. That is a very heavy weight.

Responses:

Think of me as a female groiny, seriously. My dad was very into weight training. I'm a mule. -- nm - loosilu May 3, 13:13 14
- Again, your experience is not the point. The assumption that light weights are only for invalids is a wrong (and slightly dangerous) notion. - musubi May 3, 13:16 6
  - ok, you and others are exaggerating and twisting my words, so I'm done. -- nm - loosilu May 3, 13:17 5
    - Forgive me if I'm twisting your words, but please tell me, how am I supposed to read this post? (link) - musubi May 3, 13:20 [Backboard] 3
      - I'm curious how you're interpreting posts like this. -- (link) - loosilu May 3, 13:23 [Backboard] 2
        
        I interpret that as a lone post that contradicts numerous other posts you made in the discussion. - musubi May 3, 13:25 1
        
        there were a number like that. -- nm - loosilu May 3, 13:27
    - We really aren't. -- nm - Shaun May 3, 13:17
- but if you know that, why would you assert them as being a fine starting weight for most women? -- nm - TFox May 3, 13:14 5
  - I didn't. Not once. -- nm - loosilu May 3, 13:16 3
    - *looks up like four posts* -- nm - TFox May 3, 13:17 2
      - where does it say "most women"? -- nm - loosilu May 3, 13:18 1
        
        when someone makes a global statement and the response is without qualification, how is it supposed to be interpreted as just about you? -- nm - TFox May 3, 13:19
  - Especially a woman like Meg. -- nm - Shaun May 3, 13:15
